CEO COMMENTARY

Charles (Chip) Reeves, Chief Executive Officer of the Company, commented, “Despite the difficult interest rate environment, which continues to compress our net interest margin, we had another strong quarter of strategic plan execution, highlighted by the September announcement of the sale of our Florida operations, with the proceeds reinvested into the acquisition of Denver Bankshares. These two transactions align our geographic footprint with our Strategic Plan, while accelerating our Denver market growth by three to four years. We are confident in our ability to integrate this low-risk merger, while continuing our growth trajectory in the attractive Denver MSA. Also, in the third quarter of 2023, our Treasury Management initiatives and client acquisition strategies resulted in balanced loan and deposit growth, providing ample flexibility for future, selective loan growth. Asset quality metrics were affected by one senior living credit moving to non-accrual, however, charge-offs and 30-89 day past dues remain at historically low levels. We remain diligent as uncertain economic conditions begin to normalize asset quality migration.”

Mr. Reeves continued, “While we continue to invest for growth, we are also laser focused on improving our operational effectiveness. Expenses in the quarter were well-controlled and our cost savings initiative to reduce noninterest expense by 2.5% is well underway. To conclude, we've made substantial progress executing our strategic initiatives over the last two quarters, and while we have more to do, I could not be more pleased with our team and the execution of our strategic initiatives.”

Total revenue for the third quarter of 2023 decreased $1.3 million from the second quarter of 2023 as a result of lower net interest income, partially offset by higher noninterest income. Compared to the third quarter of 2022, total revenue decreased $13.9 million due to lower net interest income and noninterest income.

Net interest income of $34.6 million for the third quarter of 2023 decreased $2.4 million from the second quarter of 2023 and $11.2 million from the third quarter of 2022 as a result of higher funding costs and volumes and lower interest earning asset volumes, partially offset by higher interest earning asset yields.

The Company's tax equivalent net interest margin was 2.35% in the third quarter of 2023 compared to 2.52% in the second quarter of 2023, as higher earning asset yields were more than offset by increased funding costs. The cost of interest bearing liabilities increased 35 basis points ("bps") to 2.33%, due to interest bearing deposit costs of 2.05%, short-term borrowing costs of 4.29%, and long-term debt costs of 6.78%, which increased 26 bps, 138 bps and 40 bps, respectively from the second quarter of 2023. Total interest earning assets yield increased 12 bps from the second quarter of 2023, as a result of an increase in loan and securities yields of 14 bps and 1 bp, respectively. Our cycle-to-date interest bearing deposit beta was 34%.

The tax equivalent net interest margin was 2.35% in the third quarter of 2023 compared to 3.08% in the third quarter of 2022, driven by higher funding costs and volumes, partially offset by higher interest earning asset yields. The cost of interest bearing liabilities increased 169 bps to 2.33%, due to interest bearing deposit costs of 2.05%, short-term borrowing costs of 4.29%, and long-term debt costs of 6.78%, which increased 159 bps, 295 bps and 208 bps, respectively from the third quarter of 2022. Total interest earning assets yield increased 67 bps from the third quarter of 2022, primarily as a result of an increase in loan and securities yields of 75 bps and 9 bps, respectively.

Results are not meaningful (n/m)                                      

Noninterest income for the third quarter of 2023 increased $1.1 million from the linked quarter due primarily to a $0.6 million favorable change in loan revenue, coupled with a $0.5 million increase in other revenue. Loan revenue reflected a favorable quarter-over quarter change in the fair value of our mortgage servicing rights of $0.9 million, partially offset by a decrease in loan sale gains generated by our governmental lending business and a decrease in revenue in our mortgage origination business. Other revenue reflected an increase of $0.6 million in swap origination fee income. Noninterest income decreased $2.7 million from the third quarter of 2022, primarily due to the decline of $2.9 million in other revenue stemming from a one-time settlement recognized in the third quarter of 2022.

Noninterest expense for the third quarter of 2023 decreased $3.4 million, or 9.7%, from the linked quarter with overall decreases in all noninterest expense categories except foreclosed assets, net. The decrease in compensation and employee benefits reflected a reduction of $1.1 million in severance expense, as well as a reduction of $1.1 million in medical insurance benefit expense, driven primarily by accrual adjustments. The $0.4 million decline in other noninterest expense was driven by various changes, including $0.2 million of executive relocation expense recognized in the linked quarter that did not recur and reduced loan expenses by $0.2 million. The $0.4 million decrease in marketing reflected a decline in advertising and sponsorships.

Noninterest expense for the third quarter of 2023 decreased $3.1 million, or 8.9%, from the third quarter of 2022, with overall decreases in all noninterest expense categories except FDIC insurance. These decreases primarily reflected a $1.8 million decline in employee benefits and incentives and commission expense, coupled with a $0.8 million decrease in merger-related expenses.

The Company's effective income tax rate increased to 19.4% in the third quarter of 2023 compared to 17.4% in the linked quarter. The higher effective income tax rate reflected an adjustment to the full-year 2023 estimated taxable income in the Company's annual effective tax rate calculation. The effective income tax rate for the full year 2023 is expected to be in the range of 18% - 20%.

BALANCE SHEET REVIEW

Total assets were $6.47 billion at September 30, 2023, compared to $6.52 billion at June 30, 2023 and $6.49 billion at September 30, 2022. The decrease from June 30, 2023 was driven by lower cash and securities balances, partially offset by higher loan balances. Compared to September 30, 2022, the decrease was due primarily to lower securities balances resulting from the balance sheet repositioning executed in the first quarter of 2023 as well as lower cash balances, partially offset by higher loan balances.

Total shareholders' equity at September 30, 2023 increased $4.1 million from June 30, 2023, driven by the benefit of third quarter net income, partially offset by an increase in accumulated other comprehensive loss and dividends paid during the third quarter of 2023.

Accumulated other comprehensive loss at September 30, 2023 increased $1.9 million compared to June 30, 2023, primarily due to a decrease in available for sale securities valuations. Accumulated other comprehensive loss decreased $12.0 million from September 30, 2022.

(1) Net charge-off ratio is calculated as annualized net charge-offs divided by the sum of average loans held for investment, net of unearned income and average loans held for sale, during the period.(2) Classified loans ratio is calculated as classified loans divided by loans held for investment, net of unearned income, at the end of the period.(3) Nonperforming loans ratio is calculated as nonperforming loans divided by loans held for investment, net of unearned income, at the end of the period.(4) Nonperforming assets ratio is calculated as nonperforming assets divided by total assets at the end of the period.(5) Allowance for credit losses ratio is calculated as allowance for credit losses divided by loans held for investment, net of unearned income, at the end of the period.(6) Allowance for credit losses to nonaccrual loans ratio is calculated as allowance for credit losses divided by nonaccrual loans at the end of the period.

Compared to the linked quarter, nonperforming loans and assets ratios increased 35 bps and 23 bps, respectively, and when compared to the prior year increased 2 bps and 5 bps, respectively, to 0.71% and 0.45%, primarily due to the downgrade of a single commercial relationship.   

As of September 30, 2023, the allowance for credit losses was $51.6 million, or 1.27% of loans held for investment, net of unearned income, compared with $50.4 million, or 1.25% of loans held for investment, net of unearned income, at June 30, 2023. Credit loss expense of $1.6 million in the third quarter of 2023 was primarily attributable to loan growth.
